PDP spokesman handcuffed to court for second bail hearing (PHOTOS)

The National Publicity Secretary of the People's Democratic Party (PDP), Olisa Metuh, appeared in court in handcuffs again today, Jan. 22, in Abuja.

In a fresh charge bordering on destruction of evidence, Justice Ishaq Bello granted the PDP spokesman bail in the sum of N300 million with two sureties in like sum.

The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), had alleged that Metuh tore and chewed his confessional statement.

Metuh is facing trial for allegedly receiving N400 million from the embattled former National Security Adviser (NSA), Sambo Dasuki.

At is first bail hearing, he was also brought to court in handcuffs, the move which has been highly criticized by many Nigerians and Human Rights Organizations.

The money he took from Dasuki is believed to be from the alleged looted $2.1 billion meant for the procurement of arms for the Nigerian army to fight Boko Haram.
